Alternative theory. Reverse image search is imperfect.

I don’t know about soup trout, but goldfish are thriving.

The way this article is framed sounds like bullshit to me. 18.1 was released less than 2 weeks ago. Any phone running this version of iOS would have had to already been in custody and somehow upgraded to this version, or otherwise brought into custody very recently—too recently for this to have already posed such a problem that law enforcement is “freaking out” and reporting it to the media.

A non-insignificant amount of people have been running the public betas because of Apple intelligence, RCS / iMessage toys, UI customization, etc. For example, MixPanel reported about 2% of the iOS install base running 18.0 before 18.0’s launch. IMHO, that’s pretty crazy for a beta OS.

Looks like the big difference is that this is on by default, it appears to get enabled when cops turn off internet access to prevent access to FindMy and remote lockdowns.

IMHO, the novelty of the feature isn’t what makes this headline worthy. This is noteworthy because of the scale. iOS is over a quarter of phones on earth, and in English speaking countries and Japan, you’re looking at numbers that are often over 50%.

This will impact a LOT more investigations than Graphene, and I imagine Apple will be back in court fighting cops who want to remove privacy and security features. Hopefully this stuff stands up to the autocrats coming into power in the states.

It’s like Brexit, but in America.

There are concepts of a plan

Why doesn’t MS do what Apple does with Writing Tools. Put it Rewrite at the OS level so that anything with text can access the feature? Doing this an app at a time is odd.

I assume you’re Canadian. This is a problem across North America. Almost nowhere is safe now.

The construction industry scaled way back in 2008, and it never really scaled back up in North America. We’re not building enough to keep pace with population growth and to replace aging homes.

We need to build, not blame each other.

The guy above you is pretty rude, but if you’re curious, The Daily had a good piece on housing prices.

Like most economists, they believe it is a supply problem. But more importantly, they claim that many North American contractors downsized or went out of business during the 2008 mortgage crisis, that industry never scaled back up, and were simply not building at the rate we were 20 years ago.

In other words, we need to incentivize and more people getting into construction.

(And now the construction industry is worried that Mexican labor will get deported under Trump, so, oof)

I’m lucky enough to have dual EU nation citizenship from my childhood. Going to be digging through my childhood paperwork in case I need it.

It was very close. As predicted, the battleground states all came down to 1 or 2 percent. Everything fell within the margins of error.

Unfortunately, the 1 or 2 percent leans all went in Trump’s direction.

We both know you are not safe.

Don’t know if this is sympathy or if you’re out front of their door in a bush right now.

Elon’s entire product development career fits into this framework:

______ was supposed to ______ by now

Trump won’t listen. He doubles down.

And Trump, Bibi’s buddy that implemented the Muslim Ban, who told Bibi to “do what you have to do,” and who famously kept poking Iran, is basically guaranteed to be Genocide Pro Max.

More importantly, he also talked about punishing “enemy” democrats.

He pointed to Amazon’s principle of “disagree and commit,” which is the idea that employees should debate and push back on each others ideas respectfully

That’s all fine and dandy for ending debate about a stupid roadmap feature, but “disagree and commit” is a different story when you’re asking people to spend 3 hours unpaid in a car everyday.
